Clutch on, clutch off, clutch on, clutch off. It slips, then after adjustment it grinds, won't dissengage and also slips to boot ha ha. Need to find a Triumph clutch as this 6 spring one is pants. Anyway a great tip is to use the clutch lever (handlebar) with a larger pivot, so after swaping the front brake lever over and with the new upside down larger leverage lever the clutch has much more lift.
A word of advice, If You have an inkling that the bike might be running in a "lean" state, sort it out! The jets are all sitting in the shed ready to tackle the carburation but it's too late. Maybe a hone and new rings will be ok but I doubt it. Re bore and piston probably. It's My fault! I ciesed the engine at speed boo hoo.

Thanks for the comment's re this one! one pic from Cyclegladiator and one pic from the Homegrown Choppers.
"Its from our garage and owner is Lävi, i did paint and pre work for this bike, Robin.B did the text and stripes. Its mostly every part made by hand so no bolt-on shit on this one, even the oiltank is made by hand by Isto. Homegrownchoppershelsinki.blogspot.com"
Here's a couple of other mad pics from there. Finland in yo face.

Somebody smashed it with this one. Does anyone who might stumble upon this site have any info on this BSA B series custom? I got the pic from boylecomm's flickr (i'm sure it appears elsewhere too) It also appears on COC where it looks like it may be from norrtalje custom bike show or something. Seems to say Hermans Racing on it.
